Actual (reported)This project will be a Randomized control trial conducted to check the effects of tissue flossing technique versus static stretching exercises of bicep muscle on pain, range of motion and function in patients with bicipital tendinitis, so that we can have best treatment option for them. Duration will be of 6 months. Purposive sampling will be done. Subjects fulfilling eligibility criteria from Allied hospital Faisalabad, will be randomly allocated in two groups via lottery method. Baseline assessment will be done. Group A participants will be given baseline treatment along with tissue flossing. Group B participants will be given stretching exercises along with baseline treatment for two weeks, 3 sessions per week. Post intervention assessment will be done via, Numeric pain rating scale(NPRS),Shoulder Pain And Disability Index (SPADI) and goniometric measurements of shoulder ranges. Data will be analyzed by using SPSS version 20.

Actual (reported)Numeric pain rating scale
The 11-point numerical pain rating scale (NPRS) is a measure of pain in which patients rate their pain ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain), and it has been shown to have concurrent and predictive validity as a measure of pain intensity.
2nd Week
Shoulder pain and disability index
A shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) is used to measure the pain and disability associated with shoulder pathology. The SPADI is a self-administered index consisting of 13 items divided into two subscales: pain and disability. The SPADI is responsive to change and accurately discriminates among patients who are improved or worsened.
2nd Week
Goniometer
A goniometer is an instrument that measures the available range of motion at a joint. The term Goniometry is derived from two Greek words, gonia, meaning "angle" and metron, meaning "measurement
2nd Week
Tissue Flossing Technique
Static Stretching exercises
Subjects will receive tissue-flossing intervention on bicep muscle for 30 sec to 2 min with an occlusion pressure of 100 mmHg. After removal of flossing, participants will perform bicep strengthening exercises at an intensity of 30% of 1 RM with 6-8 rep, 4 sets for a single day and 3 days per week for 2 weeks in total.
Subjects will perform passive static stretching exercises of bicep muscle. Each stretch will last for 30 sec at 100% of stretch intensity with 4 reps for each, 1 set per day and 3 days per week for total duration of two weeks. After the application of static stretch, participants will perform bicep strengthening exercises at an intensity of 30% of 1 RM with 6-8 reps, 4 sets for a single day and 3 days per week for 2 weeks in total.
